I guess the President's half-truths during his flat speech were good for putting people to sleep. The news is Obama's speech "sucked"!!!! Heard it all before!

Wed, 13 Feb 2013 17:05:32 +0000http://politics.wp.htcreative.com/?p=36614#comment-63300"Gulp, gulp, sputter." Really? Did you really take up space in your on-line newspaper to report that this guy needed a drink of water while giving his response to the SOTU? If you don't take the news seriously, why should we take your "news" organization seriously?

How would this paper react if, after giving an interview, some news organization fixated only on the fact that flies were landing on the president's face during the interview? You'd be outraged by the flagrant lack of professionalism and the total disregard for objectivity and balance. Hypocrisy is the only thing you can count on from the mainstream media.

As far as sympathy, what sympathy this this man have for battered women when he just voted against the domestic violence bill? I didn't see any mention of that in the Herald Tribune today...

Wed, 13 Feb 2013 15:51:19 +0000http://politics.wp.htcreative.com/?p=36614#comment-63295SHAME on the Washington Post for publishing such a scurrilous and obvious smear item as this, with, of course, no attribution whatsoever. Equal shame goes to the H/T for running it in our paper. Have you been under the thumb of the (nearly bankrupt) NYT for so long that you now have absolutely no journalistic ethics remaining? You'd best take a look at yourself before you run another crummy item like this.

Wed, 13 Feb 2013 14:51:47 +0000http://politics.wp.htcreative.com/?p=36614#comment-63289I'm sorry, but image matters. Just like Clint Eastwood's empty chair speech, the impression you give an audience counts. If you want to show up the President of the United States and the State of the Union speech, you have to be flawless; that goes regardless who the party in the White House is. There's nothing Liberal or Conservitive about what happened, that's just the way things go.

Wed, 13 Feb 2013 14:26:25 +0000http://politics.wp.htcreative.com/?p=36614#comment-63288I think I will check TMZ before HT for news. At least then I'm getting what they are advertising. I wonder why it is that all you see for comments on this site are those saying that HT is a left-leaning newspaper and yet nobody has ever said that they favored the right. Gonna guess there is truth to the idea. HT: don't be subjective on the news. Didn't they teach you that in school?

Wed, 13 Feb 2013 14:25:43 +0000http://politics.wp.htcreative.com/?p=36614#comment-63287Seriously, this is a story? I want to know what he said or if he had some new ideas on immigration or cutting the budget.

Herald Tribune- whats wrong with reporting the news.???

"Gulp, gulp, sputter"

What is this? If its a joke or is trying to be demeaning it was done in bad taste.

Herald Tribune- stop trying to create news, be journalists and report the news.
